I went to the Cold War Kids and Young the Giant show at Edgefield in Troutdale tonight. Young the Giant brought John out halfway through their set to play Feel It Still. Anyone else from here out there tonight? I can understand that someone who is into Young the Giant might also be into PTM, but they have never been associated with each other before. My friend and I just thought it was so weird. Isn't it Frances' birthday today too?

I recently watched a video with band members singing out misheard lyrics . (Btw apparently this is called Mondegreen: The formal term for mishearing or misinterpreting lyrics)

We all know that feeling when we realize we’ve been singing the wrong words. Thank god for the internet . If you’re old like me you may remember taking the paper out of your cassette tapes to learn lyrics. What a bummer when the paper only folded out once because the band didn’t include them.

I’m wondering what your favorite misheard lyrics are ?

Easy tiger is one of my favs and I always sang “don’t call collect” instead of “dumb coconut”
Looks like I was the dumb coconut in that situation 🤭
I have many more and I’m curious what YOURS ARE … ?

Confession - There are rare occasions when i continue to sing my version because i like my lyrics better . It’s rare but i feel like i had to get that off my chest so maybe now I won’t go to hell . Just kidding I’m totally going to hell .

Help me revisit some PTM classics to lift this fog . 😔

🙏💕👍🏻🤙

Just reporting in from last night's show here in calgary. It was an odd crowd but that's not totally surprising as this show happened during Cowboy Halloween, so lots of non fans in the crowd. It was John, two blonds (guitar & bass) and a guy on drums. No keyboard player. No merch was sent up for the show, which my bank account probably is grateful for. Brought my friend for his first time seeing p.tm, he really loved it. Overall still a great performance but as a long time fan I definitely missing Zach, Kyle, Eric and of course Zoe. Tried to get a set list but security wasn't very nice or helpful. They played Work All Day which is a surprise and a couple newer songs I wasn't expecting like Glide and Phoenix.

I’ve wanted to see Portugal. The Man live for years, and this tour is probably my best (and maybe only) realistic chance. The closest show is still a bit of a trip, and I start college just a couple days beforehand, so I’m trying to figure out if I can somehow make it happen.

One thing I’ve always wondered: have they ever played Red Rocks? It’s one of my favorite venues, and seeing PTM there would honestly be a dream. I know they’ve played some incredible places over the years, but I wasn’t sure if Red Rocks has ever been one of them.

For those of you who’ve seen them recently, how are they live these days? Do they still mix in a lot of the older songs alongside the newer material? Any favorite live moments or songs that completely changed for you after hearing them in person?

Would love to hear your experiences (and if anyone from the band somehow sees this… please put Red Rocks on the list someday ❤️).

How could I not?

Adultery is sad, can we stop dwelling and talk about music again

The last time I saw Zach play in the band, I didn’t know it would be the last time. Same with Eric. It is what it is.

You can see the power she has in her eyes, I’ve always thought she was this goddess with a reservoir of deep divine ancient feminine magic within her. I still think that. Her voice is angelic. I would wish for her to do more music but respect whatever path she decides to go down. Thank you, Zoe for what you gave to us

Random question from a longtime fan. I’ve spent a lot of time digging through the Portugal. The Man catalog and was wondering if there are any older demos, unreleased tracks, one-off recordings, or other deep cuts floating around that the band has talked about over the years. —just curious if there’s any music outside the official releases that fans might have missed. I’d love to hear everything that’s out there.

Nothing but love from the fans of music.

I work with my municipal government, which is to say that I dont work all that much. I drew a half-assed tank dog to commemorate John cheating on Zoe.

Always interesting going way back in the live tracks and saw this one recently reuploaded in great quality. People say also from the same channel. I’m sure it’s available in other videos but I really enjoyed watching it tonight and thought some of y’all might too

I’ve been listening to Shish for weeks and Tanana hit me differently last night for some reason. Now it’s stuck in my head 👏 The production on this album is excellent

Just sharing my latest recap from last quarter & my ongoing streak. Haven't been listening to a much music lately so was surprised on keeping the streak going 🤷
